Winter fuel payments are one of the top concerns when it comes to budget controlling and money-saving expert Chloe has given some tips to beat the difficult post-Christmas time.

The expert, who runs an Instagram account Chloe’s Deal Club, shared exclusively with The Express about ways to stay warm without blasting your boiler at home and it can be down to this £50 heated throw.

Chloe said: “Staying warm on a budget is all about using energy wisely and focusing on personal warmth instead of heating your entire home. By turning the central heating on less and relying on products like Dreamland’s heated throws, mattress protectors, heat pads and their brand-new Heated Duvet, you can stay cosy without the high costs.

“Costing from as little as 1p to run, they’re an excellent option for staying warm while keeping your energy bills in check. Layering up with warm clothing, using draught excluders, and closing doors to retain heat in specific areas are also great ways to keep warm.”

Dreamland’s heated throw charges up in as little as five minutes with a monitor for you to control the right warmth, whether you are to snuggle up for a Friday night TV binge or enjoy your morning cuppa in a cosy morning. Built with a five-layer ultra-thin heating sensor wire, the velvet blanket can detect its temperature 25 times per second and automatically regulate warmth safely.

Shoppers can curl up and cocoon yourself in cloud-like comfort. This Dreamland Intelliheat Warming Throw is seriously soft and it has been reduced from £69.99 to £49.99 on the official website and at Boots.

It comes with different heat settings including a one, three or nine-hour auto shut off timer. Other than using it as a throw in living room, some shoppers prefer to use it as a duvet at night and sleep in with extra warmth.

One shared: “My bedroom is cold, and I don’t want to run the heater the whole night, so this heated throw is perfect for me and I can tuck in for a good night’s sleep. The bonus is the auto shut-off timer, this is such a good find.”

Another urged people to purchase one to “treat yourself”, adding: “The fabric is soft and feels warm to the skin. When the electricity is switched, you feel warm within a few minutes.”

A third also enjoyed using the heated throw but he took away a star on the review, saying: “The throw is one size, measuring at 120 x 160cm – it is not long enough to cover my feet and the colour I like is available only in one size. I wish they have different sizes to choose.”

But it works as a treat for this reviewer’s parent. “I bought this for my mum she loves it. She says it is so warm and cosy watching TV and reading a book.”

You can buy the Dreamland Intelliheat Warming Throw, and you can save up to £40 depending on the colours and textures. Alternatively, marketplace Yimbly also reduced the price of Livivo Electric Heated Throw from £69.99 to £59.99, it offers nine heat settings and run as little as 3p per hour.

The Online Home Shop is marking down this Silentnight Heated Throw in Blush colour from £64 to £42. Their January sale promotion is ending tonight so shoppers might want to grab onto this offer before it goes.
